Add OpenAIAdapter for the OpenAI chat completions API (apikey-chatgpt.txt or OPENAI_API_KEY). Set default model to arcee-ai/trinity-large-preview:free for the infospace pipeline and increase max_tokens from 4096 to 8192. Reprocess chapter 05 with Trinity Large (was Gemini: 1 truncated entity, now 19 complete entities). Process chapters 06 (Aurora Alpha, 10 entities) and 07 (Trinity Large, 15 entities including regenerated violent-policy.md). Canonical set now at 85 unique entities. Add entity archive policy: entities are never silently deleted. Retired entities move to output/entities/archive/ with a dated reason header. New CLI option: --archive-entity <slug> --reason "...". The --list output shows the archive count alongside the canonical set. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

wages of labour
Definition
Wages of labour are the monetary compensation paid to workers for their time, effort, and skill in producing commodities. They represent the labour component of a commodity’s price and are determined by the quantity and difficulty of the labour required.
Source Chapter
The Wealth of Nations, Book 1, Chapter 6.
Context
Smith repeatedly references wages when discussing how the “whole produce of labour belongs to the labourer” and how wages are part of the price composition. He also notes that wages can be adjusted for hardship or skill.

Smith’s Original Wording
“The value which the workmen add to the materials, therefore, resolves itself … into two parts, of which the one pays their wages…”
Modern Interpretation
Wages of labour correspond to labor compensation in modern economics, encompassing wages, salaries, and benefits. They are a primary factor of production cost and a key variable in labor market analysis.
